About Mountjoy Square
Mountjoy Square is a historic Georgian square on Dublin’s north inner city, within the D01 area and close to Parnell Square, O’Connell Street, Marlborough Street and Broadstone. Its red-brick terraces, mature central garden and civic character sit alongside a lively, varied urban neighbourhood. Residents are within walking distance of the city-centre retail, offices, cultural venues and nightlife around O’Connell Street, Abbey Street and the IFSC. The surrounding streets offer cafés, takeaways, traditional pubs and restaurants, while larger shopping and everyday services are available along Dorset Street, Parnell Street and Henry Street. Diamond Park provides a nearby green space, and the square itself offers a quieter landscaped setting in a dense city environment. Community After Schools Project is among the local education and childcare services, with several primary and secondary schools accessible across the north inner city. Public transport is a major advantage, with nearby bus corridors, Drumcondra railway station and city-centre rail and Luas connections supporting commuting across Dublin. The area also benefits from close access to theatres, libraries, hospitals, gyms and landmarks including the Garden of Remembrance and the Hugh Lane Gallery.
